RE: [WS_FTP Forum] Using Ws_Ftp 7.5 & WinXP Prof

[Christensen, Pete]

I wouldn't even use the firewall that came with XP.  Disable it altogether and use either a good firewall like Norton or a hardware (router) based firewall.  If you aren't using a router, download or purchase a good firewall.  Most will automatically detect legitimate internet access.  You shouldn't have to make any adjustments to a software based firewall.  If it's hardware based, you may have to open a specific port to allow access.     From: J.

What do you mean make an adjustment to the firewall?  Can I still enable this another way? Thanks, have a great day!

I installed Ws_Ftp 7.5, and none of the ftp sites work!  I can access the Internet just fine, and receive all my email fine; however, none of the ftp sites work, even the default ones that are installed by the software.  I access the Internet with a cable modem! What are the steps I can take to correct this problem? J. C. Douglas [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please visit http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html to be removed from this list.
